We study how much a linear program (LP) can be compressed when solved repeatedly, given prior knowledge about its objective function. Existing data-driven projection methods learn low-dimensional surrogate LPs with approximate…

Efficient nonlinearity compensation in fiber-optic communication systems is considered a key element to go beyond the "capacity crunch''. One guiding principle for previous work on the design of practical nonlinearity compensation schemes…

We develop a new family of linear programs, that yield upper bounds on the rate of binary linear codes of a given distance. Our bounds apply {\em only to linear codes.} Delsarte's LP is the weakest member of this family and our LP yields…

A major challenge in current optimization research for deep learning is to automatically find optimal step sizes for each update step. The optimal step size is closely related to the shape of the loss in the update step direction. However,…
